I have update the http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/emcinfo.pl?ARM with the links from the last postings. Have also a look to the bottom of the http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/emcinfo.pl?AVR page: it is about AVR32 for motor control (with eclipse based ide for linux). I also prefer udp packets. Maybe we are able to concentrate our forced and avoid 12 or more variants of udp packets. Is there some code available on the emc side? BTW: what do you think about PTP (IEEE 1588)?
